Comparison of biological, biochemical, immunological, and immunochemical techniques for typing herpes simplex virus isolates.
In this study, 102 herpes simplex virus isolates were typed by cell culture selection (chicken embryo cells and guinea pig embryo cells [CE/GPE]), (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine (BVDU) sensitivity, plaque reduction neutralization, and indirect immunofluorescence staining techniques. The percentages of agreement between the typing methods were as follows: BVDU sensitivity versus CE/GPE, 99...
متن کاملBiological and biochemical characterization of clinical isolates of herpes simplex virus type 2 resistant to acyclovir.
A series of clinical isolates of herpes simplex virus type 2 were taken from a patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Acyclovir (ACV) susceptibility assays revealed that some isolates were resistant to ACV and cross-resistant to ganciclovir but not to phosphonoacetic acid. The nature of the resistance was examined further. A number of cloned variants were generated, and thymidine kinase and...
متن کاملHerpes Simplex Virus and Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis
Background and objective: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare histiocytic proliferative disorder of unknown etiology and mainly affects young children. The histological feature is granuloma-like proliferation of langerhans-type dendritic cells. Although the possible role of viruses such as Epstein-Barr virus (EBV, Human Herpes virus -4</...
متن کاملA molecular method for typing Herpes simplex virus isolates as an alternative to immunofluorescence methods.
BACKGROUND Typing of Herpes simplex virus (HSV) isolates is required to identify the virus isolated in culture. The methods available for this include antigen detection by immunofluorescence (IF) assays and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This study was undertaken to standardize a molecular method for typing of HSV and compare it with a commercial IF reagent for typing. OBJECTIVES To compare...
متن کاملTyping of clinical herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 isolates with monoclonal antibodies.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of a herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1-specific anti-glycoprotein C-1 monoclonal antibody (MAb) and a type 2-specific anti-glycoprotein G-2 MAb for typing of 2,400 clinical HSV-1 isolates and 2,400 clinical HSV-2 isolates, respectively, using an enzyme immunoassay. The anti-HSV-1 MAb showed sensitivity and specificity of 100%, and the an...
